[SOLVED] Fireworks error??

RegRoch · 09-15-2007, 09:13 PM

I hope this fits here, but anyway: I am trying to use fireworks, as i have for years now and suddenly it started giving me an error after its loading plug-ins on the splash screen that "an internal error occurred" and it closes its self. I googled it and apparently a seperate program (which i don't have) is the "only known cause" of it. Any way to fix it??

so i had to uninstall my itunes and quicktime to get it to work. Any way to have all 3 working at the same time? >.<

You could try installing Quicktime Alternative, which does the same thing as the standard Quicktime but uses less resources and doesn't install the useless updater that is such a pain to disable.

There are also alternatives to iTunes like PoddoX, YamiPod, EphPod or Anapod Explorer, but they may not have all the features you need.

What is the full error message?

Could it be a problem with one of your Fireworks plugins?

The full error message was "Could not launch Fireworks. An Internal error occurred."

I am not sure, but uninstalling quicktime and itunes fixed it, so I dont think it was fireworks.

If you have any 3rd party plugins installed for Fireworks, they may be causing a conflict with either iTunes or QT. Have you tried reinstalling Fireworks with no extra plugins?

I don't know of any way to keep iTunes and QT along with Fireworks, unless there is a conflict you can track down and eliminate. If you haven't tried the alternative software yet and you need all 3 programs, install them one at a time until the problem arises again, then you can replace the conflicting program with an alternative or simply remove it.

Its a problem with quicktime. I installed the quicktime alternative and fireworks works again. I dont know what it is, but quicktime messed it up...
